Famous quotes containing the word cast:

    “You have overcome yourself: but why do you show yourself to me only as the one overcome? I want to see the victor: cast roses into the abyss and say, “Here is my thanks to the monster, because it didn’t know how to swallow me!””
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “If you are cast in a different mould to the majority, it is no merit of yours: Nature did it.”
    —Charlotte Brontë (1816–1855)

    “I cast my heart into my rhymes,
    That you, in the dim coming times,
    May know how my heart went with them
    After the red-rose-bordered hem.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
